Double Decker Tours in the News

Thanks to Buffalo News reporter Dan Almasi for including our murder mystery performances in his recent Gusto article.  The article is found here.

The article highlights how our murder mysteries stop at three different venues to sample Buffalo's interesting breweries, distilleries and taverns.  Our Buffalo tours operate through October and the Murder Mysteries operate through September on every Friday and Saturday evening.  Murder Mysteries tend to sell out, so please consider reserving tickets sooner rather than later.

Double Decker Bus Parade Fun

Our Rotarian friends asked us to join the Amherst Bicentennial parade this week.  Driving down Main street in Williamsville was a ton of fun.  The Rotary club provided music, passengers and candy to toss to children who lined the streets.

The story of Buffalo comes alive when you take a Buffalo tour aboard the city's only double decker bus.  Thanks to our Rotary friends for the invite to participate in Williamsville's Old Home Days festivities.

Canisius Reunion

Thank you to the class Reunion tour we did for our friends at Canisius High School.  We picked up the group at the historic campus of Canisius High, 1180 Delaware, and proceeded to tour downtown Buffalo, the Naval Park, the marina and so much more.  Our double decker bus is a great way for groups to tour Buffalo and explore Buffalo attractions.

Tour with TR

We are proud to announce a new collaboration with the Theodore Roosevelt Inaugural Site to provide special tours this summer.  Imagine an assassin’s bullet. An unexpected inauguration. A new age begins…right here in Buffalo, NY. This summer, you will have the opportunity to retrace those eight days in September 1901, from the time when President McKinley was shot at the Pan American Exposition through the swearing in of one of our nation’s most consequential presidents-Theodore Roosevelt.

Double Decker Disco Dance Flash Mob

Used the double decker bus to bring 60 disco dancers to iconic Buffalo venues including city hall, Canalside and Albright Knox.  Lots of fun, maybe we will do it again.

Clarence School Trip

We had a wonderful time and beautiful weather showing Buffalo to students from Clarence Center Elementary School.  The tour included stops at Clarence Town Hall, Niagara Square, the downtown library and a ride on the Metro rail.

Thanks to Miss Gordon for arranging this event.  I hope the students learned a lot.

Make A Wish Event

Buffalo Double Decker Bus joined forces with Flying Bison Brewery to offer an exclusive donated brewery tour that helped raise more than $2,000 for Make A Wish.  TIm Herzog of Flying Bison created the tour route and provided the entertaining narration.  We supplied the ride.  Our friends from Honeywell corporation bid on the tour and all proceeds went to Make A Wish.

Visit Buffalo Niagara Tour

Thanks to our friends at Visit Buffalo Niagara for using our double decker bus to promote Buffalo's newest attractions to front line travel professionals.  It was a pleasure to explore Canalside, the Outer Harbor and Hotel Henry with the group.

Partnership: Buffalo's Largest Charity Scavenger Hunt

We are proud to be partners with Explore and More Children's Museum in creating Buffalo's largest scavenger hunt.  We created the clues and developed the smart phone based app that teams will use to participate in the event.

There are still spaces available for the hunt.  Funds raised will benefit the Explore and More Museum being constructed in Canalside.  More info is found via this link.

Raising Hope and Money For A Good Cause

Buffalo Double Decker Bus Tours and Flying Bison Brewery teamed up to raise $2,100 for the local Make A Wish Foundation this week.  We donated a private 'Beer's Eye View' of Buffalo tour that was auctioned-off for a winning bid of $2,100.

We are proud to support this worthy cause and extend our thanks to the winning bidder.

A silver lining to a recent rainstorm during our tour yesterday-a beautiful rainbow over our city.
